Ramping up fitness
Janelt is ramping up fitness as he looks to see the field this week after going unused in the last match, according to manager Keith Andrews. "Vitaly will be a little bit closer now, with another week's training under his belt. He did well to even be involved last weekend, and we wanted him to be in the squad."
Analysis: Janelt returned to the squad last week after an absence due to injury, but was not ready for play yet, instead going unused the entire 90. However, he has been training and continuing to work on his fitness levels, leaving the midfielder to possibly be an option for time Saturday. That said, the club will likely not want to push him through anything he can't manage, so a start may be held off. Either way, it looks like he should see the field, at least getting a period to test his legs.
Option off bench
Janelt (foot) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against West Ham.
Analysis: Janelt passed his late fitness assessment after manager Keith Andrews confirmed he was pretty close and that a decision would be made following Friday's session, recovering enough to earn a spot in the squad after making good progress in training following a two-month absence. The midfielder has been a regular starter when fit, but the club opted to manage his return carefully rather than throwing him straight back into the starting role after such a lengthy spell on the sidelines. His return to the XI is expected to follow in the coming fixtures as he builds his fitness back up.
